Re: Custom 92-96 Hoods

I like the drop sections in pic #3 of first post. Those drop sections would look very clean on the 92-96 hood. I would be a buyer on that hood :D

stock alcoa wheels

I am looking at some wheels for sale locally. They are off a 90's E 150 (van).
Does anyone know if these are the same as the Bronco / F150 ?

Re: cruise control shut off switch - Ford recall

I called the dealer and they said they would only install the pigtail and leave the switch. I wanted to replace the switch to see if this would cure the cruise control non-working problem. Bought the switch and pigtail from rockauto.com (Motorcraft part) for less than $10, installed in a couple minu...

cruise control shut off switch - Ford recall

I was wanting to know who on here has dealt with this. What I understand is that this switch mounted on the end of the master cyl on 93-96 models is hot all the time and the cel material that seperates the brake fluid from the electrical internals can go bad and start a fire. Some claim this has hap...

Re: What year bronco would you buy?

When I got mine the guy said it was a 98 Bronco.. I was like you mean '89, right? He said, "No man, it's a '98!" Apparently he suffered from a bad case of dyslexia and fell out of the dumb tree hitting every branch on the way down. I still got it anyways because I too had no extra funds for a newer...

Re: New guy from Idaho

Hey BRONCOPASSION welcome from another IDAHO guy - Coeur d Alene. We lived off the highway between Post Falls and Coeur d Alene for about 4 years in the late 70's (I was like 5 yrs old). It was a big two story house set off the main road. When we moved up there people would roll down their windows ...

Re: How did you hang your fenders ? Help a freezing Canadian plz

Well first off, let me say I have never hung F150 / Bronco fenders. Second, I will give credit to Autofab John for the following info - see link http://www.autofab.com/fender_mount_instructions.htm It does not show how to mount the fenders, but it is a good photo log of how to build the framework to...

Thanks Chase Truck, thats good info & pic on snouts.
So do hubs interchange on snouts with the correct bearings?

As for Bronco/F150 TTB beams, they are all the same?

TTB - interchange between 1980-1996?

My question is what is the interchangability of TTB beams & knuckle/spindles of 1980 - 1996 Broncos and F150's?

I want to go to pull and save and find some beams to cut and turn.

I did a few searches trying to find the answer, but came up empty handed.

What year bronco would you buy?

I am looking to buy a bronco. Want to build a budget GFB ( I know, yeah right!) Really focused on 1992-96 years. Looking right now at 1992 Nite edition (has a couple of minor issues - door handle, back window not working, etc) and 1995 XLT that appears pretty clean. I've heard 95-96 are preferred be...
